We're still buzzing from our hybrid concert & play-along on Sunday. Mendelssohn Op. 44 no. 1, stacks of cake 🍰 & a romp through Warlock's Capriol Suite. Amazing what a group of people of all ages who have never met before can produce. What a joyous occasion - let's do it again!

It was a pure delight to have you perform in The Abbey after we visited you before Christmas, your quality shone through and was appreciated by those attending especially us.. thank you

[Bath Strings Academy @BathStringsAcad]

A privilege for one of our quartets to play for the Mayoral Ceremony @bathabbey today. A huge well done - lots of rep played & great patience with the substitute violist! Congrats to @ZenithYouthTC on a great performance too 🎶

[Dury Loveridge @dury_cello]

Just sent my easy-arrangement of John Cage's 4'33 to @Baerenreiter in the hope of getting it published. At a much more approachable 2 minutes, I hope to unlock this work for beginners and school ensembles.

When you forget you were interviewed on camera 😳Great to be a guinea pig class for this training session last summer. So much to learn when you can reflect as both a learner and an educator.
